Your name „Skuggorna Bakom Oss“ means „The Shadows Behind Us“ - how did you come up with this name and what does it mean to you?

Fred: We had been sitting in Jokke's apartment for a whole day trying to make sense of a new song we had. With the curtains down,
we strummed the same four chords over and over and sang the same line of words for hours and hours. When the song finally could walk by itself we went outside. It was late afternoon, early May
and the sun was still shining. As we walked down the street with the light in our eyes we noticed our shadows falling behind us. It just made perfect sense at that point what this thing was all
about.

What has been crucial for the decision of singing in Swedish?

Jokke: It’s somehow easier to hide, to become someone else in another language. We didn’t want to do that. We wanted this whole
thing, whatever it is, to be completely honest. And we found out that it’s perfectly possible to write and sing rock lyrics in swedish. In fact, it’s more of an adventure because the language has
not yet been exploited and there’s so much left to discover. It’s like arriving at a new continent.

What are your next plans?

Fred: There’s so much we want to do! First up we gonna release the new single together with NewBoy Records, a great new indie label
who understands exactly what we want to do. And we gonna play as many shows as possible! We are constantly writing and there's a lot of music waiting to be recorded and released. But we're taking
it step by step from here. Whatever feels like the right thing to do, an EP or an album, maybe both.

Are you planning on playing shows in other countries in the future as well or do you only focus on Sweden?

Jokke: We actually sent some of our early songs to friends in Germany, just to let them know what we were up to. We wanna do music
for everybody and would love to do some German dates! We just gonna work our way thru Scandinavia then hop on a ferry. First we take Stockholm, then we take Berlin.
